2356 Duane Street, Eugene K. Choy, Architect, 1957

Eugene Kin Choy was one of the first Chinese-Americans in Los Angeles to obtain an architect’s license (the other was Gilbert Leong). In 1947, he established his firm, Choy and Associates, which continues to build exciting architectural projects. Silver Lake resident Barton Choy continues in the family tradition as principal of the firm which is headquartered in South Pasadena.

This 60′ Contemporary apartment building built by Eugene K. Choy continues to impress with its clean lines and recently updated color scheme.
